🇯🇵 Japanese Title:
空に響く声
Sora ni Hibiku Koe
Echoes in the Sky
🎯 Theme:
As summer ends, Hana and Yuki visit the hilltop one last time. The telescope cabin is quiet. Fireflies drift like stars.
Hana places the now-worn journal on the observatory window.
“We mapped the sky, Aika. Together.”
They record one last voice message — not for Aika, but for those who’ll come after:
“Look up. Always.”
A breeze carries their words skyward.
And in the distance, a shooting star answers.
📍 Setting:
- Hilltop at sunset
- Cabin filled with old memories
- Fireflies glowing around them
- Voice recorder on a stone
